Warning, nitpicking ahead. These are not really catastrophic issues that will ruin my game experience or anything, I generally am happy with what was revealed so far and will love it all the same when released.
Here goes:
-the long wait till February 25th
-too much spinning in the fast attack animations, more variety please
-the dodge animation looks odd and should be some more pirouette dodges in there for variety's sake
-the long wait till February 25th
-Geralt's, Yennefer's and Ciri's hair colors. Geralt's still the grey wolf instead of the white wolf (Ciri's current hair color would actually fit him better I believe). Ciri's hair is just silver/white not ashen blonde (should have a slight blonde tone to it, kinda like this but maybe not as much: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/79376012153175516/). Yennefer's hair is supposed to be raven black (yes, I know they said that's the light making it look brownish but I still have my worries).
-Triss' eyes are supposed to be blue, not green (correct me if I'm wrong please)
-the long wait till February 25th
-absence of Brokilon as far as we know
-the long wait till February 25th
Pavetta is dead ? XDYeah, actually forgot to mention that I'm missing Brokilon, Regis (it would be awesome having this character in game), Pavetta and other, important characters..
5) the possibility of a graphical downgrade was hinted a number of times now, this makes me slightly worried...
Hmmm based on this post I'm actually starting to dislike W3, it feels really "streamlined" and sellout-ish...I propose to discuss what you don't like in the game taking into account the available information.
Taking into account features I've assembled here it is possible to conclude the gameplay became more simple. As I suppose these things spoil the gameplay and makes it worse.
1. Campfires can be set fire anywhere without flint.
2. The horses are immortal.
3. The potions, the bombs and crossbow bolts are infinite.
4. Swallow potion is red in The Witcher 3. Why it should be red if it always have been cyan? Is it really made so even the most stupid gamer figured out it's a healing potion and not poison?
5. Witcher medallion shows up only during the fight. Earlier, it used to show up all the time, as well as warning about the monsters approaching.
6. The options in the dialogue menu don't match to what the witcher will say afterwards. Like in the Mass Effect.
7. There are no short lived sexual relationships as there were in the books. Serious romances only as there were in the Dragon Age.

And third, Witcher sense (IMO) is still not subtle enough. Those big red dots are a little bit over the top. Monster tracks should only be outlined red and blood trails should be slightly less highlighted. Also, why highlight ledges? I mean, seriously guys....
It's better this way, too much hype is never a good thing. I'd love to be surprised by how good the game is after playing it, rather than having an unrealistic expectation for a masterpiece then get dissappointed. TW1 and 2 are both the former case.Hmmm based on this post I'm actually starting to dislike W3, it feels really "streamlined" and sellout-ish...

About the immortal horses: I'm not against the idea, but I hope when Geralt is attacked while riding at least the horse will fall and Geralt will be thrown to the ground, in order to be forced to combat the foes (Assassin's Creed did the same thing).
